SAFETY DEVICES
All restraint devices must bear the certi-
fication data, together with the control
mark, on a solidly fixed label which must
absolutely never be removed.
Over 1.50 m in height, from the point of
view of restraint systems, children are
considered as adults and wear the seat
belts normally. Lineaccessori Fiat includes
child restraint systems for each weight
group.
These devices are recommended having
been specifically designed for Fiat cars.
GROUP 0 and 0+
Babies up to 13 kg must be carried facing
backwards on a cradle seat, which, sup-
porting the head, does not induce stress
on the neck in the event of sharp decel-
eration.
The cradle is restrained by the car seat
belts, as shown in fig. 5 and in turn it must
restrain the child with its own belts.

GROUP 1
Starting from 9 kg to 18 kg in weight, chil-
dren may be carried facing forwards, with
seat fitted with front cushion, through
which the car seat belt restrains both child
and seat fig. 6.

The figures are indicative for assembly purposes only. Refer to the
instructions supplied with the child restraint.
Some child restraint systems for weight group 0 and 1 have a rear attachment to
the car seat belts and its own seat belts for securing the child. Due to their weight,
they may be dangerous if incorrectly mounted (e.g. if fastened to the car seat belts
with a cushion in between). Follow the assembly instructions carefully.
